History teacher wins $1 million at Spin & Go

#1 17th December 2016, 8:35 PM

The history teacher (30 years old from Bermuda) said that he usually plays poker recreationally for 10 years.

And concludes: "will come in handy".

This is the moment when 'jrww86' of Bermuda won $1 million on Spin & Go. That's how a history teacher makes a little history of his own.

Amazing!

This year, Santa Claus was interpreted in the role of a History Teacher, that is, an individual who sells dreams and helps the people to have hope. Besides that, he is always in the media participating in important plays.

Advertising is the soul of the business and the business of the soul.

You are here because you know something. What you know, you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it all your life—that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it’s there: like a splinter in your mind.

Congratulations to me rotated million heart should we care

#30 29th December 2016, 8:36 AM

Very well, I would also like to win is)

#31 3rd January 2017, 5:13 PM

Well done - `ex-teacher` !
Congratulations - for winner !
But - all the time I think : `Spin&Go` - not a poker game, in pure vision. Just more from lotto there.
If someone want to save his time (mean - want to play quick) - better play in craps or simply .. drop the coin - for $10k bet.
Poker, in really - some other than lotto.

Life is short one - so hurry up by every second !

#32 3rd January 2017, 6:31 PM

Is an incredible story hear history like that give me hope that at some point
the luck turn to my favor and do not lose all my back with some Russian player like so far

#33 3rd January 2017, 6:41 PM

what a life changing score,one you can only dream about except for those lucky few that hit it big-im sure theres a hefty tax on that amount

#34 6th January 2017, 4:38 AM

Another "avg joe" with a big win just happened in Vegas as well. 900k+ to some guy that works at starbucks....

Score another one for the little guys!
